This article describes how the Data Processor "pulls down" (ie moves to her local c:\ drive) Centralized_data.mdb and PHI.mdb for editing. The file gets moved to local because it's faster there and because it prevents collectors from sending in the middle of update actions.
Data should not be pulled during designated sending times.
** Before going home ALWAYS make sure you are in the 'push' mode
Instructions / Steps to Pull
- double-click on Centralized_CCMDB (folder shortcut icon)
- double click on Pull_down_centralized_data.vbs
- Prompts do you want to ...
- Answer Yes
- Wait for the program to pull which takes approx. 5 minutes
- Prompts finished processing pull script
- click OK
- The Push/Pull log will show whether you are in 'push' or 'pull' mode.
